I absolutely loved the place and the hosts were very approachable and friendly. It was perfect for me in every way, but most importantly it was very peaceful. I felt this awesome connection to the space, making me feel like I was back at home. My next trip to the Parksville area will definitely include “Potters View Guesthouse”.

The guesthouse was very clean and tidy and in a super location! The kitchen was well-equipped for making simple meals. As an fyi, as other reviews mentioned, the bed was quite firm, and the sofa was very soft. The hosts communicated well with us and we had no trouble checking in or out.They even welcomed us with some freshly made cinnimon buns!A comfortable quiet place to stay on our working holiday.

Fantastic stay!

We loved this spot! Great location, close to all the things we wanted to see in a weekend. The suite is very cozy and well laid out. The bed and sofa were comfortable and the kitchen had what we needed to cook a basic meal. The view was beautiful and the addition of the cat Yoshi lounging in the driveway and visiting us made it feel like home. We would definitely recommend and would love to visit again someday.

Nice place

Check in was easy. It was close to the beach and nice and quiet! The couch that converts into a bed did the job, but it was oddly-shaped:) still all beds were comfortable. I liked the table and chairs outside on the little patio. The dishrack was bigger than it’s tray, but we made do. It was a nice space and again I really enjoyed the quiet!! Check out was breezy. Briefly met the host, she seems nice and is friendly. Would stay there again!

The property was located ideally for us for seeing the middle and some of the north island. It’s in a nice quiet area. It’s clean and well equipped with everything we needed. The host had everything ready for us. We would definitely stay there again.
